Construction Design Engineer

Eq Talent Solutions, Minneapolis, MN, United States


Build What Others Only Design

Construction Design Engineer , you’ll go beyond traditional design work and play a key role in how projects actually get built. Reporting to the Director of Engineering, you’ll support complex construction efforts across the Midwest, including rail transit, bridges, and industrial projects.

This is a unique opportunity to work on the temporary works and construction engineering side — solving real‑time challenges, supporting field execution, and seeing your designs come to life in the field.

What You’ll Work On

Designing temporary structures such as falsework, formwork, and cofferdams

Developing construction access solutions, including temporary bridges

Performing bridge analysis for equipment loading, erection, and demolition sequencing

Designing hydraulic systems for controlled movement and positioning

Supporting rigging and lifting plans through engineering analysis

Evaluating barge and equipment stability during construction operations

Designing safety systems to support complex field activities

Producing clear, detailed construction and shop drawings (CAD)

Why This Role Stands Out

Work on the “how it gets built” side of engineering, not just theoretical design

Gain exposure to field‑driven problem solving and construction execution

Be part of a team that supports complex, high‑impact infrastructure projects

Opportunity to learn directly from experienced engineers and construction leaders

See your work implemented in real time on active job sites

What You Bring

Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering or related field

Interest in construction engineering, structural design, or temporary works

Strong communication skills and attention to detail

Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment

Collaborative mindset and willingness to learn

Recent graduates are encouraged to apply — this is an excellent opportunity to launch your career in a specialized and highly valuable area of engineering.

Who This Is Perfect For

Engineers who want to be closer to construction and field execution

Candidates interested in bridges, heavy civil, or infrastructure projects

Those who enjoy problem‑solving and variety, not repetitive design work

Compensation: $75,000.00 - $115,000.00 per year
